Jags bring back TE Ben Koyack, release David Grinnage

With the lack of production, injuries and inexperience all occurring at the tight end position, the Jacksonville Jaguars have turned to an old face to help them out. The team announced the re-signing of former tight end Ben Koyack Monday night.

To make room for his addition, the Jags also announce the release of David Grinnage.

Koyack, 25, was initially drafted out of Notre Dame by the Jags in 2015 in the seventh-round. Afterward, he spent four seasons with them before being released in September of this year. During that span, he was able to accumulate a total of 24 career catches for 199 receiving yards and a touchdown, which most may remember was the only touchdown in the Jags’ wild-card playoff battle with the Buffalo Bills back in January.

As for Grinnage, he had been with the Jags since August of 2017 and spent the remainder of that season on their practice squad. In January of this year, he signed a reserve/future contract. When Austin Seferian-Jenkins went on injured reserve last month, the Jags promoted Grinnage from practice squad and he played in their following four games.
